- This is KPerfMon, by Kenny Leung.
-
- It's a neat performance monitor that tracks CPU, Memory, Disk, and
- Network resource utilization in it's icon. If you get paranoid about
- what's going on with your system, get this and stick it on your dock.
-
- Version 1.1 changes:
- I've hacked this to compile under NeXTSTEP 3.0. I also "fixed" a bug that
- caused KPerfMon to crash if the load gets too high. I also hacked the nib
- to allow finer control of the poll time (mainly so I could have it update
- every half second). I've documented all of my changes in the source...
- This version works: I've been using it for several months without a crash.
- Don't leave it running for days it a time as it will eat a lot of VM. I
- have been too busy to fix that.

- Version 1.2 changes:
- I tend to log in for about a week at a time, so the problem with this using up
- a lot of VM caused me hassles. With some help via a tip from Tom McSorley I
- was able to use MallocDebug to track that problem down (initially KPerfMon
- wouldn't even run if the MallocDebug library was linked in with it). After
- I fixed the memory problem, I went on to add options to govern which displays
- KPerfMon will switch between. While I was there, I also fixed it up so the
- initial position of the sliders (in the preferences panel) were correct.
- Note that this version will not run under Release 2.x.
